You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

fas·cism   Audio pronunciation of "fascism" ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (fshzm)
n.

  1. often Fascism
    1. A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.
    2. A political philosophy or movement based on or advocating such a system of government.
  2. Oppressive, dictatorial control.

Seems to fit quite well with what this Kansas professor said and believes and the general attitude of the evos on this thread.

You ignore the rather basic problem that ID doesn't have any actual science that could be taught in a science class. Behe admitted this in court, under oath. The Discovery Institute admitted this when they declined to participate in the Dover trial. They said ID needed to establish a research program and do some actual science before attempting to get into the science classroom.

Good heavens, this is so absurd I don't know how to respond.

This is terrorism:

This is terrorism:

This is terrorism:

Throwing around terms like "fascist" and "terror" so casually cheapens the deaths of the victims of genuine terrorism and fascism.
